Faculty Exchange in Karlsruhe, Germany

Dr Veltze in Germany with Class

The students pictured here with Dr. Linda Veltze (center) are in a teacher training program at the Karlsruhe University of Education in Karlsruhe, Germany. ASU has a formal relationship with this institution through the Office of International Education. Dr. Linda Veltze is a professor of Library Science at Appalachian State University and is on a faculty exchange this spring semester.

These are students in her Teaching the Holocaust Course there. The students were able to communicate with Dr. Veltze, before class meetings and through mid March after class meetings through the use of the Moodle Course Management System operated through ASULearn. The students met with Dr. Veltze in a compact course format for a week, meeting daily, all day. She will teach a second course on Teaching Peace and Tolerance through Children's Literature and Media in May.
